I tied my thoughts to the morning air

Invisible strings floating everywhere

A shadow whispers where the sunlight bends

Chasing echoes that the daylight sends

[Chorus]

Oh the world spins fast but the strings hold tight

Pulling me closer to the fading light

Every step I take leaves a tangled line

Invisible threads in this heart of mine

[Verse 2]

I hear the stars when the night falls deep

They hum their secrets while the mountains sleep

The strings

They quiver in a silent song

Binding the places where I’ve been all along

[Chorus]

Oh the world spins fast but the strings hold tight

Pulling me closer to the fading light

Every step I take leaves a tangled line

Invisible threads in this heart of mine

[Bridge]

The wind it tugs but it won’t unweave

These threads that twist in the air I breathe

They loop and knot through the unseen air

Binding me softly to everywhere

[Chorus]

Oh the world spins fast but the strings hold tight

Pulling me closer to the fading light

Every step I take leaves a tangled line

Invisible threads in this heart of mine

[Verse]

Lights up bright minds gather near Teaching hearts with no trace of fear

In Sarawak where the rivers flow

English blooms watch the future glow

[Chorus]

Ignite the spark let the learning fly

Digital waves reach the endless sky

Together we grow together we thrive SELES 2025 keeping dreams alive

[Verse 2]

Click and tap the world’s in our hands Building bridges across distant lands

With every word with every rhyme

[Chorus]

Ignite the spark let the learning fly

Lyrics:

[Verse]

Bintulu skies burn with a glow

2025 the seeds we sow

Sarawak’s heart the words collide

English dreams we cannot hide

[Chorus]

Ignite the minds let the fire start

Fuel the soul feed the heart

Digital waves crash on the shore

Learning never stops we crave for more

[Verse 2]

Voices rise in the tropic heat

Breaking walls where ideas meet

The digital age calls our name

In this journey we stake our claim

[Chorus]

Ignite the minds let the fire start

Fuel the soul feed the heart

Digital waves crash on the shore

Learning never stops we crave for more

[Bridge]

The future speaks in clicks and keys

Through screens and dreams across the seas

Sarawak stands with strength and pride

In Bintulu’s arms the world’s allied

(A Song for the 9th Sarawak English Language Education Symposium)

[Verse 1]

Gathered here with minds alight,

Sharing wisdom, shining bright.

From every corner, near and far,

Together we raise the bar.

[Pre-Chorus]

Words connect us, hand in hand,

Learning grows across this land.

With passion strong and hearts sincere,

The future’s calling—let’s draw near!

[Chorus]

Oh, SELES 9, our guiding flame,

Igniting minds, we speak, we claim:

English lights the way ahead,

For every voice, for words unsaid!

[Verse 2]

Teachers, scholars, side by side,

Breaking walls, we’re unified.

New ideas will lead the way,

To brighter skies, a brand-new day.

[Bridge]

From Kuching to Miri’s shore,

Sarawak’s spirit we explore.

With every lesson, every plan,

We build the dreams of youth and land!

[Final Chorus]

Oh, SELES 9, the time is now,

With open hearts, we take our vow:

To teach, to inspire, to set minds free,

For language lives in you and me!

[Outro]

So let the echoes of this day,

Guide our steps, light our way.

Till SELES calls us home again,

Keep the fire—*keep the flame!*

We walked in with questions, eager to grow,

Ready to learn what the future will show.

From chalk and board to digital screens,

We chase new dreams through teaching means.

In every click, a spark begins,

New ways to teach, new ways to win.

Together we rise, voices combined,

Lighting the way, igniting minds.

We teach with passion, hope, and grace.

Methods evolve, but our goal is clear—

Each voice we hear, each skill we view.

Together we dream, together we climb,

For every child, we're igniting minds.

Transforming lives in ways unseen.
